KH, if you have changed the kernel to use libATA (i.e. the newer SATA/PATA options) then you need to update your fstab from /dev/hdaX to /dev/sdaX and change your grub.conf accordingly. PS. When you install GRUB use tab completion to see what's available and make sure you install it in the correct drive/partition. PPS. Peter, I installed the kernel option for [*] ATA SFF support and corresponding chipset (ICH) for my P4 and it now boots fine. So I suggest that you use lshw to find which chipset you must activate under ATA SFF (unless you have one of the more modern <*> AHCI SATA support controllers like I have on my i7 Dell). -- Regards, Mick
